indicative Of bile In the blood Who would be
yellow when he or she can exhibit the hue OF
health on cheek and brow through the aid Of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, an antagonist at
whose onset liver complaint takes refuge in
flight. Fur upon the tongue, nausea, sick head
ache, pains under. the right ribs and shoulder
blade, an unpleasant odorous breath, are rem
ediable with this benign Alternative, which does
not, like a potent cathartic, drench the intes-

the blood. Not only the liver, but the
stomach and bowels are aroused, toned and reg
ulGted by this fine family medicine, which has
won the confidence OF the respectable classes,
not by startling assertions on its behalf, but by
the consistency of the claims made for il with its
performance In every instance when tested.

He's Got II on His List.

Some months ago IL was announced in this
paper that Mr.. Ira +. Clark the clothier, OF
4S2 Congress street, had decided to introduce
the plan Of sharing portion Of his profit
with his clerks. The public naturally felt
an interest in all such new departures, and
the question has frequently been asked
what has been its effect upon his business
A representative Of this paper met Mr.. Clark
the other day and asked him how the plan
worked.
"It works well." said Mr.. Clark, "and l
have been doing growing business for some
time past. A year ago l doubled my floor
space by building on an addition, and in
creased my help and stock accordingly. My
advertising trebled, and my prices | made
literally bed rock. The result has been very
gratifying In the year ending Oct. 1, 1886,
my sales amounted to $20, ,211.16; for the year
ending Oct. l, 1887, they amounted to S66,-
ALA, an increase which ought to satisfy any
reasonable man."
TO what do you ascribe your success ?"
was asked.
"Well, low prices, judlcious advertising.

AT THE STATE PRISON.
The Manufacture of Brooms-oId
and New Convicts.

THoMAsToN, Oct. 1.-THE State Prison
officials have completed their arrangements
to place twenty per cent of their force on
the manufacture of brooms, at the begin
ming of the next prison year, Nov. 1st. Five
carloads of broom corn have been purchased
in Chicago, and it is the intention to make
nice broom. By the first of January, another
division of the prisoners will be put at work
on heavy furniture. The law prohibits
the employment of more than twenty per
cent of the prisoners on any one branch of
business. The arrangements already made
will give employment to workmen on har
nessess, carriages, brooms and furniture,
Whether this will be sufficient, considering
the number employed in various other ways
in cooking, making garments. etc., has not
yet appeared.
Among the prisoners shortly to be liber-
ated is Frank Bickford of York county. An
indictment is on file at Alfred, on which he
will probably be arrested as soon as out of
the prison. His brother, implicated in some
of the offences for which Frank has suffered,
died lately in prison.
The late term of court at Alfred gave two
sentences, that at Portland four. AS rules
the sentences throughout the State are much
less than usual this season.

IL was such cold and disagreeable after
noon yesterday that only about one
hundred and fifty people went to the
Portland grounds to see the Bostons play the
home team. Those who went saw a fair
game Of ball, but not an exciting one. Mains
pitched for Portland, and Madden for Bos
ton. The former was not hit so very much,
but the Bostons punched their hits, so that
with 10 they earned five runs. Tse. %Qrt=
lands could not touch Madden, only three ~
them hitting safe for the game. The three
old Portland players-M Madden, OROurke
and Wheel0ck-were greeted with applause
when they came TO the bat and were each
presented with handsome bouquets. As will
be seen by the score two Of them-O' ROu rke
and Wheelock-did over half the batting for
their team and both played perfect fielding
game.
